The calorie amount still remains, regardless of how greasy and processed the food is. Greasy processed food will have lots of calories, but even that sandwich with the most calories, the double roast beef sandwich, still has only about a quarter of the average person's daily required calories, and people usually eat two or three meals per day.

>>16997844
You're not very smart yourself because the problem with that "processed crap" you mention is that it's very high in calories and people who eat it tend to eat too much of it, which means they're getting to much calories. In the end, it all comes down to calories. The cause of gaining weight is eating too many calories, and you lose weight by eating fewer calories. This is so simple, even stupid people should understand this.

umm no? what if i eat 3,000 calories a day and don't exercise? i might not gain an extra 10lbs by saving 100cal but i'd still be gaining weight.

>> No.16997879

>>16997829
sure. and yet it's still less of a risk factor than being obese. ideally you do neither, but ultimately counting calories while eating unhealthy is still better than not doing it.

>> No.16997921

>>16997863
first... learn how to not duplicate posts tard

second... yes the sandwich itself is only 530, but there's a high chance someone eating this is eating it with fries and a drink, pushing it over 700 calories, which is too much for one meal in the average three-meal diet

third... the grease and processing still remain regardless of the calories count. caring only about weight is stupid from a health perspective. i mean if you only care about vanity that's fine, just don't tell yourself you're eating healthy when at arbys

You really don't have to pretend you know what you're talking about. You'd get a lot more respect in life if you tried to learn things instead of pretending you know shit. Like, do you even know what grease is or why it's supposedly bad for you? You seem to think it's inherently bad like it's poison or some shit.

>700 calories, which is too much for one meal in the average three-meal diet.
If hypothetically the full meal was 700 calories, eating three of those (one for each meal) in a day would still give you the average recommended daily calorie intake. So much for that argument lol. You really don't understand any of this, do you?

Not a good idea. but in terms of body weight, you would not gain any weight. The exact same thing would occur if your diet consisted of only protein measured precisely to match your required caloric intake. Does that make protein bad, in your mind?

You people are so fucking retarded. That is not the "root of issue". The root of the issue is too many calories, not enough burning off of those calories. It's not fucking rocket science. Do you know how many chubby faggots I know who spout off bullshit about "hormones in food" and "muh processed" "muh corn syrup" "muh gmos" like literally none of that shit is why you're fat, faggot. You're fat because you eat too much. You're fat because you sit on 4chan all day and jerk off to porn, loser.

The reasons to eat quality food have to do with harm reduction against containments and impurities in manufactured food, combined with the lack of micronutrients. Quality food ingredients are important for overall health and energy levels, but it is not even close to the "root" issue of why people are obese in modern first world society. Having a healthy appetite to eat a lot of food is good and evolutionarily advantageous for an organism that naturally burns 3000-4000 calories in a day from manual labor and movement in general, but it's not good when you keep those same genes but then only burn 2000 calories in a fucking day because you work in an office like a cuck.

ugghh... i feel like you're just trolling but fuck it, i'll bite

it's funny how you're ignoring grease and fat when talking about weight loss because your body still has to process it along with the calories, which almost eliminates any calorie savings.

not him but I want you to see this.

Being completely sedentary and eating like shit, yet still being thin is actually healthier and you will on average have healthy blood markers than eating good food and exercising but being simply overweight. I'm not trolling. I didn't want to think this is real either but it's the truth based on recent research.

If you're fat, and you think you're healthy because you eat "quality food" you're kidding yourself. Lose the weight fat fuck. Even if it's not that much, lose it. Get down to 15% body fat, be healthy, and then you can flex about your "clean" diet.

It never stops being entertaining to see Americans struggle with basic health knowledge like calories, and them thinking that calories are a fake made-up conspiracy or some shit, while simultaneously having no fucking idea what calories even are.

this proves nothing.

someone's who fat and doesn't exercise will have greater odds of getting diabetes and hypercholesterolemia because they're more likely to ingest high amounts of sugar and cholesterol. if they were to keep their sugar and cholesterol intake while only reducing calorie intake they'd still be high risk.

I was overweight from high school to post college, I lost all the extra weight (50 lbs) mainly from tracking how many calories i was eating. Seeing how calorie dense certain foods are made me not eat them anymore, most notably pasta and dairy.
